Trump’s Special Envoy Steve Witkoff stepped on a rake yesterday (or maybe walked into an airplane propeller) when he dubbed Russian president and war-monger Vladimir Putin a “humanitarian.” NY Post columnist Isaac Schorr begs to differ and provides all the reasons he’s anything but a benevolent ruler. Worth noting: Victory Girls called Witkoff’s word choice “vomit-inducing” and said he “disgustingly sucked up to Vladimir Putin.” For once I agree with Victory Girls. JD Vance actually defended Witkoff in a moment that will hopefully come back to bite him if/when he runs for president in 2028...An article in The Dispatch wonders if trillionaire Elon Musk is worth all the trouble.

That’s because society benefits from incredible inventors like Musk even when their personalities are often anti-social or even alarming...Name game: English surnames are in a nosedive in England. So reports Newsmax. In 1996, the three most common surnames to babies born in England and Wales were Smith, Jones and Williams. By 2025, Smith still ranked as the most common surname, but was followed by Khan, Ahmed and Ali...The Daily Wire is expanding its editorial staff.  Joining the conservative outlet’s lifestyle site Upstream are: parental rights advocate Beth Mandel, MAHA guru Jordan Jantz, culture critic Bridget Riley, and marriage and motherhood maven Elizabeth Grace Matthew....The Grass Is Always Greener: Wired published an article bound to stoke controversy: They Fled Trump’s America and Now They Regret It. Here’s the provocative subhead: “The internet told them Europe was a social paradise. Turns out the trains are awful, the health care isn’t free, and people can be really mean”...If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
